Vermilion Energy Inc. (VET-T) has received mixed reviews from experts, with some expressing optimism about its potential due to its assets across Europe, Australia, and Canada, particularly in natural gas. The company is perceived as undervalued, especially given the geopolitical factors affecting gas prices in Europe. However, some analysts caution against its broad geographical focus and previous operational struggles, labeling it as a potential value trap. Despite recent debt repayment and strategic repositioning, questions remain about the company's catalysts for growth. Overall, while a select few analysts highlight the stock's profitability and recovery in oil and gas prices, others advise caution and suggest it lacks compelling growth prospects compared to better-performing alternatives.

DON'T BUY

One of the most international oil names in Canada. Is vulnerable to crude oil prices moves, so it has pulled back lately. She only lightly invests in this area and isn't buying energy producers. Oil is too hard to forecast.

DON'T BUY

Big volatility out there. Hard to figure out. He's looking for consistency and stability, and that's hard. The money's really moving. He's staying away.

We think VET is OK, with many of the expected problems at least partially priced in now. 
We would like TOU better, as well as WCP, TVE and SU/CNQ. 
NNRG is an easy choice for investors looking for an active managed, more aggressive fund. It is hard to compare the fund with single companies, however.  Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

HOLD
Volatility in energy sector tough for retirement investments Recent pullback of shares a good time to invest in. Sees opportunity in natural gas production. Is a good company depending on risk appetite.
COMMENT
Had taken a position but has sold it. It is a bet on natural gas and we are near the peak of natural gas prices. 32% free cash flow yield. Attractive stock but not enough.
BUY
Very well run. Recent acquisition gives them more complete ownership of that field. Benefited from exposure to Europe, though talk of excess profits tax has hurt a bit. Pretty good buy at these levels.
HOLD
Very beneficial exposure to European gas prices. Trading at 70% free cash flow yield. If conflict in Europe eases, will reduce gas prices. European tax on energy profits a major concern. Inventory depth a concern as well. Other names in energy sector that have better upside.
TRADE
It has good numbers. Oil and gas prices will determine the eventual stock price. Owns CNQ because much larger.
BUY
Entire energy sector is very attractive right now(high cash flow, paying down debt etc.) Company is interesting with European exposure. A good company to own if looking to hold energy in portfolio(high free cash flow).
BUY
Has really benefited from natural gas situation in Europe, and he'd continue to recommend it. There will be fresh upward pressure on gas prices going into the winter. The States has an easier time shipping LNG to Europe and, hopefully, Canada will get its act together to benefit as well.
BUY
Very good company that is trading at cheap price. Trading at ~1x cash flow per share. Very well exposed to European gas prices. Share price be not be as cheap as it appears given European gas prices may fall drastically.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Company benefiting from strong European energy prices. Not confident in inventory depth in relation to other energy companies. Will focus on other names that offer more opportunity (even though shares are cheap).
BUY ON WEAKNESS
European gas prices presenting large opportunity. 2023 will be trading at ~1.5 cash flow and 44% cash flow yield. Very short reserve life compared to other companies. Better opportunities available for energy investors.
COMMENT
Big run because of rise in European nat gas prices, and this price action may be less sustainable. Well run.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Haven't liked it for the over global diversification, dividend cut, and other issues. However, the stock is deep value. Trading at 2.1x cashflow. 49% free cashflow yield. Has short reserve life. Low so they need to add to inventory. Can privatize themselves in 2 years however. 10% of the stock is short. Trading at a discount, and it could trade at 4x mutliple.
